For me personally I would say that i'm a normal user with some basic knowledge, I can get the computer to do what I want most of the time :grin: Like most here I have distro hopped around to try and find the one that I feel suits me and covers everything that I need it to do.

So the things I look for are:-

1. KDE Plasma (mainly due to the years of using windows).
2. Clean install no bloat (I like to install everything myself and not have to uninstall a bunch of apps like libreoffice etc.)
3. Flatpak and snaps in store (I want access to as many apps as possible from the store.)
4. Reliable with minimal distribution.

After trying many distro's I keep coming back to Kubuntu for the above reasons but I must add that I did enjoy Tuxedo when I tried it and even had it installed for a few months (it did seem to run quicker with my AMD cpu and graphics but I did seem to have issues with audio and some random crashes, plus with Kubuntu you can do a minimal install which for me even great as I only installed the apps that I wanted plus also I could not install any snaps until I reinstalled the snap backend for discovery which might suit some people.

I've been playing Enlisted now for the bast few weeks to get my war based FPS, plays very well plus is native so all is good. Always a shame to see this happen to games we enjoy playing, I just now try to make it fun finding good alternative that work on Linux.

I have only just a few days ago installed their OS and I must say it works very well, quick, smooth and so far everything seems to work well. I also like the custom tweaks such as no snap support. I had an issue upgrading to
Kubuntu 24.04 LTS (black screen after reboot) which I did managed to sort by poking around in the Grub but still was not happy that I needed to do that to make things work.

I tried a few other Distos that were KDE but nothing seem to work as well as Kubuntu until I came across Tuxedo. I really like the distro so far plus nice to be running latest plasma, plus like the fact that when installed, it found my windows os (sorry still keep it for two apps and one game) and set is all up in the grub menu which some of the others distros did not.

Personally I have been using Kubuntu LTS for about a year and a half now, all seems fine and have not run into any problems but I must add that I'm not a heavy gamer just a few games on steam and some emulators. I do find that Heroic works very well for me so I do feel covered in most areas.
